"The Bad Sleep Well"
1959
Directed by Akira Kurosawa
One of Kurosawa's best
films, in some ways a prophetic work set in the circles of corporate government and
corporations. The film is a black, twisted story of revenge in which a grieving son takes
on powerful business and political figures. Set up as a tantalizing thriller, Kurosawa's
melodrama is laced with irony and bitter, grotesque humor. Japanese with English
subtitles.
151 minutes. |
